I'm not a privacy nut, but I am concerned about a company owning my ideas when I'm working on personal projects. I'm careful about that. Would that be a deal

  I admire that and wish more employees looked after their interests, too, so that the commons weren't so poisoned with corporation-morality rather than humanity-morality. Practically speaking, I think giving The Guardian or some pro-union think tank/lobbyist a copy of internal corporate policies would move the needle a lot more than a personal stand, but the personal stand is admirable nonetheless. Currently my financial freedom supersedes that level of moral freedom and agency.

    Tech Solidarity collected those years ago. I think he came to the conclusion that you can't get anyone in tech to organize for anything so it didn't really matter. Although it does seem like Googlers organize for their own comfort; they don't seem to bother doing it for their users though.
